Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults aged 18 to 75 with pathologically confirmed locally advanced unresectable or metastatic CLDN 18.2-positive GC/GEJC who progressed after first-line therapy and meet study criteria.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients whose tumors do not express CLDN 18.2 or who do not meet other eligibility criteria may not benefit from BL-M05D1.

What this trial studies
This is a registrational phase III, randomized, open-label, multicenter trial evaluating the safety and efficacy of BL-M05D1 in patients with CLDN 18.2-positive advanced gastric cancer or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma who have progressed after first-line therapy. Participants are randomized to receive BL-M05D1 every 3 weeks or a physician-selected regimen such as paclitaxel, docetaxel, or irinotecan. Eligible patients have measurable disease, ECOG 0-1, adequate organ function, and sufficient life expectancy, with tumor tissue available for confirmation. The study aims to determine whether BL-M05D1 improves outcomes compared with standard options in this setting.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, BL-M05D1 could offer a new treatment option that improves tumor control and survival for CLDN 18.2-positive advanced GC/GEJC.
How similar studies have gone: Prior similar targeted-therapy approaches in gastric/GEJ cancers have shown mixed results; this represents a targeted, potentially beneficial strategy in CLDN 18.2-positive disease.
